I have a list of files open in MP3TAG. I would like to copy the filenames to the titles. The help I have read is confusing. Does import mean I have to place the filenames in a file and import them from the file. If not, pleace clarify the process for me.  
Thanks

No. You can use the Converter and there Filename-\>Tag.

If you want to copy the whole filename to the title-tag you just have to write %title% as format string. There is an immediate preview of the result.
